Splinterlands: Selling & Reinvesting: To Play Or To Rent.... More Viable Option?

The Splinterlands' season came to an end two days ago as many were counting down and anticipating the rewards that they might get. This is because the efforts put in throughout the season has been huge, it's been tougher than it has always been.

The reason why the anticipation was even bigger was because everyone wanted to know if the rewards would be favorable which might compensate for the toughness of the season.

Anyway, I cannot completely say the end of the season reward has been totally bad for everyone because I've only seen the one for a few players. As for mine, I wouldn't say I'm totally disappointed, I expected it. I ended up gathering only 10 loots even if I used to gather close to 40 before the Inception of the last changes.

The cards I rented out

Season's Expectations & Loot

As for the 10 loots not too bad DEC there were more of potions, with just one card

I wasn't expecting it to be better because to me I felt the end of the season's reward might be as bad as the season itself and I wasn't wrong. In fact, there are some players who couldn't believe how poor their season was.

I saw someone in Gold one lamenting about the how his rewards totalled $5 worth of assets including DEC, they had to double check to see if the it was actually the rewards for the league they currently finished, but boom! Of course it was.

So I made this post about where I decided to rent all my cards instead of playing this session but then, I decided to to keep playing for one more season.

The reason for this is majorly because I want to understand the loot system and see how the reward for the end of this particular season might be, so what I did was upgrade a lot of my cards to level 2, then rented three cards out. The BAAKJIRA, A gold Deeplurker and a gold Cursed windeku, those were mainly the cards I don't use. I have one copy extra of the gold cards I mentioned. There were some I could have sold as well, but since the prices they were listed for wasn't really favorable enough, I decide to leave them out.

A different Expectation: Going Again

The reasons why I decided to leave them out was because maybe..... Just maybe, I have become addicted to playing splinterlands, I just wouldn't be able to stop. I've been playing since September last year and I've posted about my progress a lot.

I like to think, I'm not too pumped about making money

.....but I was pumped up by the idea that I was making prospectively making profit by accumulating assets that might just do well in the future.

However, I do not think I can adjust to not playing. However, this will only be dependent on the outcome of this season. I already played about 20 games this season and won about 13 and accumulated some DECs, I guess this made me renege on my plans to rent out all of my assets.

However, I'm willing to spend the 14 days of this season to think about whether I want to continue or if I want to stop completely.

Here, some purchase and upgrades

Doing Business For A New Season

So far so good......

I'm counting on this season to see if there would be any changes, the cards I'm renting out isn't really going to fetch much profit-wise, but I think it's better to have them sitting there. So far, I've been tempted to sell some cards and using the proceeds to buy SPS but it's just not worth it at all.

So all I did was to upgrade some cards to enable me compete this coming season. So I opened two packs, and I got a gold goblin psychic

I sold cheaper, then sold one of my Iza the fanged, with the two, I was able to raise some money, so I bought 3 extra life summoner general Sloan for $1.5, then increased it to level two, so also, I did the same for the Pelacor Arbalest.

I think, with these upgrades, I'm going to attempt trying again this season, then I'll see how far I can go. I like to think that there would be favourable prices in the future. For now, I like to try again this season with the upgrades I've done.
